Hi Greg, In regards to;
"I hope there's no intention of changing the net.jini.** package namespaces to org.apache.**." I was under the impression that it /was/ the intention to change all the Jini/River code to be under the org.apache namespace. I also thought that doing so was a requirement for the eventual promotion of River out of the incubator. I know that this would break third party code (my own included) but I personally feel that it's a desirable step that should be taken. Am I rehashing an old discussion here that has already been decided?

As in "the Jini dynamic networking infrastructure". I've always understood that River was the project name for the reference implementation, in the same way that Tomcat is the name of an implementation of the servlet specification. More specifically, I hope there's no intention of changing the net.jini.** package namespaces to org.apache.**. com.sun.jini is fair game, but changes away from net.jini will break existing code, across a couple of vendors, I suspect.
